Re: 3/4 ton vs 1/2 ton in a burb 4x4

I like 3/4t.It`s really not that much more capacity.I`d rather risk having overkill in a 3/4t than wonder if I`m a bit too loaded in a 1/2t.Suburbans feel heavy compared to trucks to me.There`s more body roll and sway,it seems.Figure 4-5 grown men is a bit of a load in itself.You still have a shortbed behind the second seat,too.I`ve never felt like I had too much truck in a 3/4t,even empty.
